CSS - Trouble Centering Div
Hi,
This is a link to my site: http://www.zombiemod.com/rm/nina2/main.php?g2_itemId=13 This is the relevant CSS: Code: #main-image-container { position: relative; overflow: hidden; text-align: center; } #main-image-container #sliding-frame p { position: relative; height: 470px; overflow: hidden; } #main-image { position: absolute; left: 105px; cursor: nw-resize; z-index: 10; background-color: #111; } Ive tried automatic margins, align-center and a few other things, but I cant get this code to sit in the center of the page: Code: <div id="main-image-container"> <div id="slideshow-controls"> </div> <div id="sliding-frame"> <p> <img id="main-image" src="main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=21&g2_serialNumber=2" style="width: 460px; height: auto;"/> </p> </div> Can anyone help me out and show me what I should be doing? Similar TutorialsI hope someone can help me with this, I've been messing with it for hours, and it /seems/ like it should be simple. Take a look at this page. I am trying to extend the green background of the nav bar over to the black line on the right hand side, and to center the css buttons so that the whole nav is centered within the containing div (the black lines on the web page.) Here is the relevant page code: PHP Code: <div id="navbar" class="nav"> <ul> <li class="first"><a href="/admin/events/">SUBSCRIBE</a></li> <li><a href="/admin/photos/">ISSUES</a></li> <li><a href="/admin/content/">PURCHASE CATALOG</a></li> <li><a href="/admin/press/">SELLERS GUIDE</a></li> <li><a href="/admin/resources/">PRODUCTS</a></li> <li><a href="/admin/resources/">NEWSLETTERS</a></li> <li><a href="/admin/resources/">EVENTS</a></li> <li><a href="/admin/resources/">BLOGS</a></li> <li><a href="/admin/resources/">ABOUT US</a></li> </ul> </div> and here is the CSS for the nav bar: PHP Code: #navbar { width: 768px; text-align: center; background-color: #098E00; margin-top: 35px; } .nav ul { width: 100%; margin: 0; padding: 0; text-align: center; font-size: 11px; } /* any li element within .nav container */ .nav li { float: left; margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style: none; border-left: 1px solid #fff; } /* any anchor in a .nav list item element */ .nav li a { display: block; /* expand to fill parent li */ margin: 0; /* no space between anchors */ padding: 3px 6px 3px 6px; text-decoration: none; /* no underline */ color: #fff; /* override default link color */ background-color: #098E00; } /* 1st list item has no left border */ .nav li.first { border-left: 0 none; } /* rollover effect */ .nav li a:hover { background-color: #ccc; } How do I center the nav bar, and make it so that the CSS buttons are centered on a green background that goes from the left hand black line to the right hand black line? THANKS FOR YOUR HELP. Ok, so I've got a decent design laid out, and I'm working on creating the markup for it, but I've run into some trouble. It's a fairly common style, two collumn with a header and footer. The navbar is a 2 deep nested unordered list sitting on the left side inside a floated div called "sidebar." What I'd like, is for the space to the right of it to function as if it was a separate cell as it were (in tables lingo anyway, if you can't tell I'm still learning the new way of things). The funny thing is, IE does this by default, and I know that's incorrect, but I really wish I could get the layout working just like it works in IE.

I have tried using {margin: 0 auto;} which works fine, but when the scrollbar appears on the page it knocks it off balance and the other content on the page becomes mis-aligned. I have also tried setting left margins to push the div to the middle, but I figured this would cause problems and wouldn't look right to people using higher than 1024x768 resolutions. Is there any other way? This list is a navigation bar that displays tabs horizontally. I can't seem to figure out what properties I need to use to center it correctly. I have 2 problems: 1. How can I get these list items centered? 2. the second level seems to have problems displaying horizontally in IE. How can I fix it? Code: <div id="tablenavcontainer"> <div id="navcontainer"> <ul> <li><a href="/doctors/enroll/" rel="self" class="" id="purple" name="patientenroll">Enroll Patient</a></li> <li><a href="/doctors/patients/" rel="self" class="" id="current" name="doctorspatients">My Patients</a></li> <li><a href="/doctors/lab/" rel="self" class="" id="green" name="doctorlab">Lab</a></li> <li><a href="/doctors/pharmacy" rel="self" class="" id="yellow" name="doctorpharmacy">Pharmacy</a></li> <li><a href="/doctors/tools/" rel="self" class="" id="red" name="doctortools">My Office Tools</a></li> <li><a href="/doctors/home/" rel="self" class="" id="graphite" name="doctorhome">Home</a></li> <ul> <li><a href="/doctors/patients/currentchart.html" rel="self" id="currentchart" name="currentchart" >Current Chart</a></li> <li><a href="/doctors/patients/labhistory.html" rel="self" id="labhistory" name="labhistory" >Lab History</a></li> <li><a href="/doctors/patients/symptomhistory.html" rel="self" id="symptoms" name="symptoms" >Symptom History</a></li> <li><a href="/doctors/patients/prescriptionhistory.html" rel="self" id="prescriptions" name="prescriptions" >Prescription History</a></li> <li><a href="/doctors/patients/reports.html" rel="self" id="reports" name="reports" >Restore Reports</a></li> <li><a href="/doctors/lab/ordertesting.html" rel="self" id="ordertest" name="ordertest" >Order Testing</a></li> <li><a href="/doctors/pharmacy/prescribe.html" rel="self" id="orderrx" name="orderrx" >Prescribe</a></li> <li><a href="/logout.html" rel="self" id="" name="" >Log Out</a></li> </ul> </ul> <br style="clear: both;" /> </div> </div> Hello, I have tried to use the auto margin to center a div within a div, but the auto margin only seems to work on the outermost div. Is there a workaround where I can center my content inside of a nested div? Take the example code: Code: <html> <head> <style type="text/css"> body { background-color: orange; } #container { width: 700px; margin: 0 auto; background-color: red; } #nested { width: 700px; margin: 0 auto; background-color: blue; } </style> </head> <body> <div id="container"> <div id="nested"> Text Here </div> </div> </body> </html> So I want the nested div to have its content centered, so "Text Here" is in the center. http://www.stevemedleyphotography.com/tempo/index.html What I am trying to do is make it so that the blue background is as it is already but the orange box is the full width of the window despite what resolution or window size the user has, and also is centered on the screen. -------BLUE--------- -------BLUE--------- -------BLUE--------- -----ORANGE------- -----ORANGE------- -------BLUE--------- -------BLUE--------- -------BLUE--------- Like that. I will be having some stuff within the orange div. I don't really know much CSS at all and am kinda guessing my way through it... poorly... Thanks for any help. Hey. I'm having issues with getting my page to center in IE7 using margin: auto; It works fine in firefox. The page is at http://jbench.co.uk:81/. The CSS is at http://jbench.co.uk:81/css/css.php . The section where i think the problem is: CSS Code: Original - CSS Code #page { width: 900px; margin: 0 auto; padding: 14px 3px; min-height: 250px; font-size: 1.2em; } #page { Any help's appreciated. Hey everyone, I am fairly comfortable with HTML, and even know a decent amount of PHP and Javascript. But sometimes trying to do the simplest things in CSS makes my head spin! (this is one of those times). I've got a "scrolling" header at the top of a page (stays visible even when scrolling), and am trying to center a DIV (which contains opt-in forms) inside that header. It looks good when my browser window is maximized (at 1280x1024 resolution). But when I minimize the browser or check it in other screen resolutions, the "centering" of the opt-in forms are off. Here is the page... www.wordflood.com/Test/Scrolling_Header.html And here are the CSS includes... www.wordflood.com/Test/style.css www.wordflood.com/Test/IE6_style.css This was really just a quick hack from a "scrolling header" demo I found online, so I must have overlooked something. Any ideas? Now while I did manage to work this out with margins and paddings, I have to ask how to do it properly. It's very basic. You have blank page. No wrappers no nothing. Then 1 div, holds, 1 ul, with 20 li. The div has specified width. How to center the ul inside the div? I need the UL to NOT have specified width since I'll be adding more items to it over time. Thanks! Hi, This is my first css only layout and I am trying to centre the navigation. But it wont.
